Purpose Recently, many researchers have paid much attention to the Artificial Intelligence fields of GVGP, PCG. The paper suggests that the improved MCTS algorithm to apply for the framework can generate better AI agent. Design/methodology/approach As noted, the MCTS generate magnificent performance without an advanced training and in turn, fit applying to the field of GVGP which does not need prior knowledge. The improved and modified MCTS shows that the survival rate is increased interestingly and the search can be done in a significant way. The study was done with 2 different sets. Findings The results showed that the 10 training set which was not given any prior knowledge and the other training set which played a role as validation set generated better performance than the existed MCTS algorithm. Besed upon the results, the further study was suggested.
